  1. In A0AB,
    OB² = OA² + AB² ⇒ OB² = (20)² + (20)² ⇒ OB² = 400+ 400
    ⇒ OB² = 800 ⇒ OB = √800
    Radius of quadrant = 20√2 cm
    Area of quadrant
    = 90°/360° × πr² = 1/4 × π(20√2)²
    = 1/4 × 3.14 × 20√2 × 20√2 = 628 cm²
    Area of square
    = (Side)² = (20)² = 400 cm²
    Area of shaded region = Area of quadrant – Area of square
    = 628 – 400 = 228 cm²
